What does the readLine method do?

  1. Reads a single byte

  2. Reads a line of text

  3. Reads a file

  4. Reads a character

The correct answer is: Reads a line of text

The readLine method is used to read a single line of text from a file or input stream. Therefore, options A and D are incorrect because they both specify a smaller unit of data - a single byte or character. Option C is also incorrect because it specifies reading a whole file, rather than just a single line of text.
